Somewhere in Japan, a body has been discovered. A dead body, found by a hot spring in a scenic winter setting. And then another, in the same place. Both victims died rather unusually of hydrogen sulphide poisoning, so the police consult geochemistry professor Shusuke Aoe (Sho Sakurai) to see if it could possibly be murder. As such a thing could only happen if the killer had precise knowledge of all of the surrounding geological conditions in the area, it's a pretty far-fetched notion, until Aoe meets Madoka Uhara (Suzu Hirose), who happen to possess such knowledge. This will lead the professor and the police down an unexpected path, into a world where the supernatural, the mystical and our reality meet, and a battle between life, death and the realms that exists beyond them both. (Fantasia International Film Festival)
